| From the collection of the late Chester Howard, this beaded turtle fetish (TEH.F79.1) measures 5 ¾” from the tip of its nose to the end of its tail. Sinew sewn, with metal trade tinklers and dyed horsehair tufts, and a nice age patina, this piece has been attributed to the Northern Plains tribes dating from the early to middle 20th century. In very good condition withot damage or loss of beads, the only blemish is the oval spot on its brain-tanned stomach indicating the area where Howard applied glue to mount it in one of his decorative frames. The bag shows beautifully and comes with a small display card, a biographical sketch about Howard, and our certificate guaranteeing authenticity. We’re pleased to announce that we’ll be adding many more items from this great and diverse collection including: Native American textiles, beadwork, pottery; Pre-Columbian pottery, artifacts, beads, figurines; some 2700+ merchant, Indian Trading, Military, Hacienda tokens; a great assortment of picturesque and decorative artifact frames that Howard had professionally constructed to house many of his treasures; and much more.
